Moving onto a boat and have given away all my basses. These are texts accumulated over 33 years of studying and playing and I'd like to give them to good homes. All I ask is that you Paypal me the shipping cost after I send them. That would be the real shipping cost plus the price of the new postal service plastic envelope. In North America I'd guess between $6 and $12 depending on weight but I'll send them anywhere in the world. Don't ask about shipping costs in advance please, I don't have time to check that for you. If you want to check it yourself the stuff will be shipping via Canada Post from Vancouver, BC, Canada V5T 4R8
And if you're really broke (like a lot of students are) and
honestly don't have 10 bucks to pay shipping let me know and I'll probably send it to you anyway...just make sure you pass the favor down the line sometime.
I'll leave the list up a few days and try to send them out the next couple of weeks.
To request something please email me with your shipping address.

I don't wanna try to keep track via this thread so you gotta email me if you want something.
